Memory is a strange thing, the longer it is, the more clearly remembered, Qiongfang. Deng once said: I hope there is an invention, how good it is to put memories in a bottle like perfume. Memories can never fade and remain fresh all year round. Whenever you need to, just open the bottle at any time, and you will feel as if you are back in time to experience that moment again.
Of course, such wishes may not be realized, but the impressions in my mind may resonate with the words. Luzhou's post-70s and post-80s, experienced the era of material scarcity to abundance, but our childhood still experienced a lot, do not need to find happiness through money, such as some childhood games, for today's children who eat Coke burgers, play games and play this kind of high-tech toys, it is simply earthy to the extreme, but this earthy happiness is really nostalgic. If you are interested, take a look at the following tricks (games) of the Luzhou babies in those years, and perhaps inadvertently evoke good childhood memories.
1. Jumping arch back (jumping arch bridge)
This is a bit like the jumping horse of today's gymnastics competition, but this wooden horse is made by people, it is more like the shape of the arch bridge, so Luzhou people refer to the jumping arch for short.
Two people can play. When playing, one person bends down to make an arch, and the crowd starts a few steps away and leaps over. Jump one round, the arch rises once, until one jumper fails, and the loser arches and continues to jump again.
Some are also divided into the following categories:
(1) Jump the whole body one by one in the prostrate and low posture, then jump in the back arch posture, and then jump stand in the low-headed high posture;
(2) Continuous jumping - the person who jumps first, immediately arches the posture to let the person behind jump, so that the jump is until the end of the fun;
(3) Buckle hand jump one by one to two people buckle hands as a jump frame, first low and then high, others jump in turn, jump can not be replaced by a jump frame. This game, Luzhou mainly in children's games, because adults vary in weight, it is difficult to master, but it is very interesting.
Second, roll the iron ring
Rolling Iron Ring, an old traditional children's game, flourished throughout China in the 1960s and 1970s. The player squeezes an iron rod or wire with a "u" shape on the top of the head and pushes a black iron ring with a diameter of about 66 cm forward. Some also put two or three small rings on the iron ring, which are louder when rolling.
Push the iron ring with an iron hook and roll forward on the ground. Can be more inclined undulating obstacles, turning, faster, can be in single dyeing roll is preferred. Luzhou was mostly carried out among primary and secondary school students more than 30 years ago. It's now a memory.
2. Cockfighting
This is not two roosters fighting each other, this is called bumping into the kidnapper in the north, we call it fighting in Luzhou. Cockfighting is a game that exercises balance and endurance. The game requires at least two people to bend a leg, which is called a leg turn in Beijing. This game is a leg that is bent forward, can be moved by hand, the two sides use one foot to jump and bump against each other, with the onset leg to collide with each other, who is knocked out of balance, the bent leg is put down, who loses.
Fourth, the snake holds the egg
One person is a "snake", with three small stones as eggs, "snakes" to pedal the lower limbs of the egg snatchers as a victory, by the pedal people in exchange for the "snake", three eggs robbed, "snake" did not step on the person, the penalty of a subject to start again.
V. Taiping Heavenly Kingdom (War Game Without Smoke)
This game was my favorite game when I was a child, because it seems to be a battlefield, and there is no smoke in sight. The only thing that this game has to do with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is to have these four words, and as for the rest, there is no connection at all, so it is not necessary to change it to the Sino-Japanese War.
How to play it? Only two people, you can use a homework book and two pens, you can also use chalk, on the ground, first draw a field grid, and then start guessing, winning once, writing a stroke, until these four words are written, the person who finished writing first can start to build the castle one by one, plant flags, repair ammunition depots, load bullets, all of which need to be built one by one. If the bullet magazine is built, you have begun to have bullets, if you win again, you can erase one of your own bullets, while erasing one of the other party's strokes, so that the other party must complete the words before you can use the clip, of course, if you keep winning, you can cut the opponent's chassis to pieces, this feeling is really cool.
6. Shovel (chop) green fruit
This game is now estimated that many people do not know, but the Luzhou people in the 70s and 80s must have played it. What is shoveling green fruit or cutting green fruit. In fact, we are used to calling zai, that is, using a wooden board or ping-pong racket to polish a piece of wood into the shape of green fruit, Luzhou is rich in green fruit, that is, olives, its appearance, two points, the middle circle, a bit like spinning cones, grinding wood takes some time and effort, a little small partner with the assistance of adults, wood polishing is more exquisite like green fruit.
Put the green fruit on the ground, with the edge of the wooden board or racket, to knock, we call the shovel, cut or slaughter, this is a kind of cleverness, the green fruit ball tip if just hit the right position, will jump up, immediately flatten the ball board, as if the ball is upside down, to see who topples the most to win, you can also finally turn the ball upside down, hit hard, than whose distance is far to win, in short, this game, very creative and skilled. At that time, I had my own racket and green fruit ball, which was a great thing to attract my friends.
